Hey all 🙂

Included in the changes coming in this patch are a number of community-reported topics that the GRID have prioritised and acted on, to further improve your experience with the game.

Version 1.1 is expected to roll out from the beginning of next week (W.C 28/10/2019) - keep on eye on the GRID social channels and the Forums, where we'll let you know when this process begins. In the meantime, we've compiled the patch notes for 1.1, which you can check out below.

Thank you and now fix the slow AI on hard and very hard difficulty, if you are a good player with good skills the AI is tooooo slow
Also add an option to choose your laps in the career mode

If you do this I will love this game Codemasters, please read my comment and fix it

Actually AI needs to be slowed down in qualifying race pace can be a little bit faster but not a big deal

Let's hope this will fix the game DX12 crashes at launch (for us players who haven't been able to play the game yet because of this!)

Can you change "Around the Globe" achievement?
40000km is a bad joke, game can be fully completed for 2700km.

It looks like he has 31 hours into the game, meanwhile you don't even own the game on Steam?

It's a very common complaint about that achievement by the way.

I'm still seeing the mouse cursor while using a controller

The complaints are useless if you play many races online. I bet there are people who has past 40k on autosport so in time its quite possible

Someone made a post on Reddit investigating the quickest way to obtain the achievement. He used the Porsche 917 on the Indianapolis Oval Circuit, race set to 99 laps. After repeating this nearly 100 times, he finally got the achievement 100 hours later. For "regular racing", this would easily be 300+ hours.

The online multiplayer in GRID 2019 is quickly dying. The concurrent number of players[steamcharts.com] is dropping by the day. Heck, GRID 2 has nearly double the amount of players every single day.

Here's my impression of Grid:

Press Play > Crash > Press Play > Crash > Press Play > Crash....

Multiplayer lobbies needs to be your Prime Directive!

So what? The circumference of the Earth is approximately 40,000 km. If you reduce this challenge to fever kilometers its not a "around the Globe" challenge anymore.

Im really concerned on the current education system.
